Craig Berube on the makeup of the McMann-Matthews-Robertson line: "Speed... A lot of speed on the wings"

We are all excited he is back here. We're glad to have him on the ice, in the locker room, and around the guys. He is a very prepared guy. He does a lot of preparation off the ice. He is an extremely hard worker; an extremely hard worker. There were times last year when we had to sort of pull him back in practice a little bit. He is a second- and third-effort guy on the ice in practice.

Craig Berube on Easton Cowan skating as the 13th forward in practice: "No decisions have been made... Just keep working and practicing"

What is the plan for Easton Cowan moving forward? Berube: Just keep working and keep practicing. He has had a good camp. No decisions have been made. That is where we are at. How do you make the final decision? Berube: You have to look at where your team is. Does he help us right now? What is best for him? He's a young kid, but we liked him in camp. He is here right now.

Craig Berube on evaluating Matias Maccelli's fit on Matthews' line: "Is he getting Matthews the puck enough for opportunities? That line plays against good lines, so he needs to be solid defensively, too"
